FH26 Double Strung — General Information

With two banks of parallel strings, each with a full set of sharping levers, this double-strung harp offers a new level of creativity. Each hand has free access to the harp’s entire range, permitting arrangements that would typically require a much larger harp. Different lever settings, intricate arrangements, complex harmonies, and echo effects add to the potential techniques this harp can inspire. Leg set optional. Watch and listen to the FH26 Double-Strung harp.
